Our mission

Are you that special person who - weary from trudging the endless superhighways - just longs to camp next to a glorious oasis of the mind? Do you desire to explore new frontiers, splash in shared ideas, fill your belly with the refreshing fruits of inspiration, and bask in the gentle rays of fond reflection?

Well, you can fuck right off. This, my friends, is not that place. This place is... The ShadowLands.

This is actually an important question, as no humans have been exposed to as much radiation as the survivors of these bombings.

Turns out, if you are lucky enough not to be vapourised in the first instance, humans are extremely resilient.

God says you're out of time whenever.
